Meet Greg!

General Manager, Dickinson

Greg Burgman joined Gooseneck Implement in January, bringing decades of leadership, technical expertise, and dealership experience to his role as General Manager in Dickinson. Growing up in Nebraska as the son of an Air Force serviceman, Greg learned early the value of discipline and hard work. He started working in corn fields at just 13 years old, later attending school for architecture before joining the Army. During his 13 years of military service, he worked as a technician and mechanic—discovering a hands-on career path he truly enjoyed. It was also during this time, while stationed in California, that he met his wife. Today, they have two sons and strong ties to the Dakotas.


After his father retired in Dickinson, Greg eventually made the move to North Dakota, launching a long and successful career in equipment dealerships. From shop and maintenance roles to Service Manager positions, aftermarket leadership, regional operational management, and even opening new dealership locations, Greg has led teams across multiple organizations throughout the region. With experience spanning construction and agriculture, large organizations and startup stores alike, he now brings that depth of knowledge and leadership back to Dickinson as part of the Gooseneck team.


To Greg, Genuine Passion is simple: a burning desire to be the very best in customer service. He believes excellence isn’t optional—it’s the standard. That mindset drives how he leads, how he builds teams, and how he approaches every customer interaction. Genuine Gratitude starts with valuing the customers who trust Gooseneck with their livelihood. Greg believes gratitude should be visible in how the team serves, communicates, and follows through. It’s about earning trust daily and never taking relationships for granted.


One thing Greg is especially proud of in Dickinson is the state-of-the-art facility. “It’s one of the most beautiful facilities around,” he shares. But beyond the building itself, he sees it as a tool—an opportunity to deliver a first-class experience for customers and provide employees with a workplace they can be proud of.


What Greg looks forward to most is meeting and connecting with Gooseneck customers. Building relationships, learning about their operations, and understanding how the dealership can best support them is something he’s eager to prioritize in this new role.


Something people might be surprised to learn about Greg? He’s known for being a very transparent and authentic leader. He believes in clear communication, honest conversations, and leading with integrity, whether he’s working with his team or meeting with customers. And outside of work? He’s a die-hard Pittsburgh Steelers fan. Game days are serious business, and he proudly supports the black and gold every chance he gets. His loyalty to the Steelers mirrors how he approaches leadership—committed, steady, and in it for the long haul.


And if he weren’t in the ag equipment world? Greg says he’d probably be enjoying retirement—but for now, he’s focused on bringing his experience, energy, and customer-first mindset to Dickinson.

Harvest is busy enough without spending extra time creating work plans or correcting field information in the cab. That's why John Deere is introducing a new feature designed to make harvest setup easier and improve the quality of your documentation. Beginning August 3, John Deere Operations Center will automatically create harvest work plans for compatible machines using the seeding data already stored in your organization. How It Works Operations Center will use your spring seeding records to automatically generate harvest work plans and send them directly to compatible machines. If your seeding data is complete and accurate, those work plans will already include information like: · Client · Farm · Field · Crop type · Variety · Additional field information from your seeding records Instead of building harvest work plans manually, your operators can get to work with fewer button pushes in the cab and spend less time managing documentation throughout the season. Why This Matters Accurate spring data leads to accurate harvest records. When your seeding information is clean and organized, this new feature helps ensure your harvest documentation is just as accurate. That means: · Less setup time before harvest · Fewer manual entries in the cab · More accurate harvest documentation · Better records for reporting and future decision-making · Potentially less office work creating harvest work plans manually Is Your Operations Center Ready? This new feature is especially beneficial for operations that have maintained clean seeding data throughout the spring. If you're not completely confident in your Client, Farm, Field, varieties, or seeding records, now is a great time to get everything cleaned up before harvest begins. Post Seeding Maintenance Package Our Precision Ag team is offering a one-time Post Seeding Maintenance Package for $500 to help prepare your Operations Center for harvest. The package includes: · Operations Center Data Cleanup · Client, Farm, and Field organization cleanup · Review and correction of post-seeding data, including: o Varieties o Acres o Task dates o Other planting information · Boundary Creation (Upon Request) o Create or update field boundaries for improved documentation and mapping · FSA & Crop Insurance Reporting Binder (Upon Request) o Receive a complete binder containing: - Seeding dates - Varieties - Acres - Additional seeding information - True field boundaries that remove overlap and identify prevented seeding acres - Seeding coverage maps with field information Whether you're preparing for harvest or organizing records for reporting, this package helps ensure your data is accurate and ready when you need it. Want to Disable Automatic Work Plans? Organizations will have Automatic Harvest Work Plans enabled by default. If you prefer to continue creating harvest work plans manually, the feature can be turned off in your Organization Preferences before August 3.  While we expect most customers will benefit from having this feature enabled, it's helpful to know you have the option to manage this setting based on your operation's preferences. Need Help? If you'd like assistance reviewing your Operations Center data or would like to schedule a Post Seeding Maintenance appointment, contact your Gooseneck Implement Account Manager today. We'll help make sure your data is organized, accurate, and ready for harvest.
